Expedition

π π π (log from April 2020)

After university, I took my usual train, but took a bus a Norderstedt Mitte. I got off 1.6 km from the hash. Still having a little time to spare before my meetup with Leidenfrost at the hash at 1:25 pm, I tried to reach to huge quarry pond nearby, but both entrances were closed. Still wanting to get a look, I cycled 300 m across a field that OSM regarded as a path, but this was unwise as the ground was soft and pedaling was extremely exhausting. But at least I could see the lake. After struggling back to the street, I rode the last 1.6 km to the hash, arriving on time. The hashpoint was located just 2 m from a country road in a hedge bank. But as Leidenfrost didn't come, I waited, ate an apple, played a game, took photos and was about to leave again, when he arrived after all, almost 20 min late. We took some photos while cars dashed right past us, then cycled 5 km to Leidenfrost's home, in a slow pace because of his terrible bicycle. If you count 2 m vicinity as reaching the geohash, a whole lot of people who drove by reached this one. Because we set off independently from different points, I claim the Earliest geohasher achievement.
